The main purpose of these releases is to facilitate packagers in packaging for the 5.9/6.0 releases

Packages built from these systems should be submitted with the vl59 designation.we have modified a version of CruxPorts4Slack that will help wth package building.you can get it here: http://vectorlinux.osuosl.org/Uelsk8s/cruxports4slack-20061113-i586-1vl59.tlzThose submitting packages must have also include a source dir with source tarball and build instructionsAlso we recommend using "--with-included-gettext" with ./configure

So does this mean that Vector is now going to have four different versions? VL SOHO 32bit, VL SOHO 64bit, VL Standard 32bit, and VL Standard 64bit. Or is there just going to be one VL but with a 64bit version?

Vector will have VL Standard 32bit, and VL SOHO 32bit. If the VL community decides there is enough value in having 64bit versions to build the packages we need, then there will be 64bit versions as well.

Okay, Xorg 7.3 looks waaay too sweet! Is it going to be included in VL 6? Oh, BTW, I absolutely love the HAL support. It's soo nice to be able to stick a cd in the drive and have it auto mount. Of course there's a lot of other things that it does to.

Where can I find the md5 or sha1 for the 64 bit version? The 32 bit installed beautifully on my test box, but I cannot get the 64 bit past the "boot: " screen.I want to check the next download to make sure it's not corrupted.Thanks.Bill
